Don't you just hate it when you miss an important call because you forgot to turn your iPhone's mute switch off? Or what about that one annoying person that always calls at 3 in the morning? Wouldn't it be nice if you could forever silence their calls?
With RingerX VIP, all of these scenarios feature easy solutions.
This is a jailbreak tweak for those who require fine grained control over how various contacts are treated whenever they call you or message you...
It's a big day for Corona. After being updated this morning to fix the DRM issues in iBooks, Saurik just tweeted that the untether has been updated yet again, this time to resolve problems with the iPhone 4S running iOS 5.
Corona 1.0-8: @sbingner noticed that 1.0-6/7 failed on iPhone 4S 5.0 (the only supported 5.0 build; absinthe's Corona had worked): fixed. :(

If you're having problems with iBooks on your jailbroken device, you can install Corona directly from Cydia. If you've already installed Corona, you can simply update it via Cydia and you should be good to go.
There are already tons of different ways you can invoke the Twitter panel in iOS 5, and this is just one of the latest methods for doing so.
QuickTweet is a Notification Center shortcut for iOS 5 that places a quick link to the compose tweet function in the bottom left-hand corner. This could be the perfect companion to IntelliScreenX's built-in Messages+ SMS shortcut, because it's situated directly across from it...
In the months leading up to Apple's Fall iPhone announcement last year, we heard dozens of rumors that never materialized. Obviously the big one was that the handset was going to feature a major hardware redesign, but there were others.
NFC (Near Field Communications) compatibility is another rumor that never panned out. The iPhone 4S launched without any sign of NFC chipsets. But that doesn't mean that the next iPhone won't feature the technology...
Animated Boot logos can once again be acquired on the latest iOS jailbreaks using a tool from developer iH8sn0w simply called animate fix.
For example, if you're an iPhone 4S jailbreaker, all you have to do is download and install the animate fix package, select animated logo from the BootLogo settings panel, and restart your device.
This is a great way to add even more customization to your iDevice, as you can probably gauge from the screenshots and video...
Apple heavily relies on Foxconn for producing its hugely popular iPhones and iPads, and the more business booms for Apple, the better Foxconn does, too.
Foxconn's huge production facilities are apparently not quite huge enough, and now the company is looking at building a further five facilities in Brazil, with the aim of helping it to keep up with demand for Apple devices.
According to AppleInsider, the five new facilities will employ about 1,000 people each...
You might remember a few weeks ago when we told you about Tribute Calendar, an application that paid tribute to Steve Jobs in the form of a calendar application that had been rejected by Apple.
The developers of the app didn't want to take "no" for an answer and did exactly what more developers should do: they turned to Cydia to release their app without the need of Apple's benediction...
Apple's handset business is doing pretty well these days. It recently gave birth to a new model, which seems to be doing rather well, and it's making inroads into a major new market — mainland China.
Of course, when you start selling more phones, you have to hire more people to make them. M.I.C gadget is reporting that thousands of Chinese workers have lined up to apply for new iPhone production positions at Foxconn...
A couple days ago, RedSn0w was updated to fix the iBooks DRM issue where some images wouldn't display properly, or wouldn't even display at all. At the time, we noted that a Corona update shouldn't be too far out.
Saurik just announced on Twitter that Corona has been updated to version 1.0-7 to fix those issues mentioned above...
I've never been a huge fan of carriers advertising themselves by means of the carrier logo in my iPhone's status bar. For that reason I usually remove them with a tweak like CleanStatus or Springtomize 2.
But Zeppelin — a new jailbreak tweak that just appeared on Cydia — has me considering carrier logos again...
Apple may have struck a blow in its current battle with Samsung over wireless technology patents, without actually doing anything.
News broke today that the European Union is launching a formal investigation into Samsung and its potential breach of EU antitrust rules. The investigation itself will focus on FRAND patents which means patent appliciations related to standards must be “fair, reasonable, and on non-discriminatory terms.”
The EU obviously believes Samsung hasn't been acting entirely above board with regards to its current patent dealings with Apple...
The iPhone 4S is selling so well that Digitimes believes the competition is running scared. So much so that the likes of HTC, Samsung, Nokia and LG apparently delaying the release of new handsets until the iPhone 4S sales have slowed.
All the big smartphone players except Apple are expected to show off their upcoming handsets at Mobile World Congress in Spain, but if Digitimes is correct, then we'll have to wait until the second quarter before we can buy them.
Apple's fourth quarter showing was particularly impressive, garnering 23.9% of the market share. Samsung took second place with 23.5%. Behind the big two, Nokia made up the top three with 12.6%...
